Glynn Edwards
Assistant Director, Special Collections
Current Role at StanfordGlynn is the Assistant Director in the Department of Special Collections & University Archives is primarily in charge of the Collection Services Division and the libraries' Born- and Acquired-Digital Programs. She also collaborates with other managers to develop new programs and directions within the department.
Collection Services staff work collaboratively with over 20 subject specialists and curators throughout the library; we take in over 350 collections each year, totaling between 1,800 and 3,500 linear feet (this is equivalent to 2.5-6 million documents) a year. Our focus is on collection management as well as discovery and access including: acquisitions, cataloging and processing of incoming material in any format - from rare books and papyrus fragments to artifacts and computer media. We also manage all digitization projects and descriptive metadata for special collections materials in conjunction with subject specialists and the digital library group.
The departments' Born-Digital Program collaborates with Digital Libraries Systems and Services as well as the libraries' Metadata Development Unit. The department of Special Collections also directs the ePADD Project - developing software to acquire, process and deliver email archives in our collections. A new release of ePADD software (Version 5.0) came out in winter 2018. -

This recovery-oriented clinic provides culturally-contextualized and trauma-informed care for people with marginalized, multiple, and intersecting identities. He teaches the history of psychiatry to general psychiatry residents and forensic psychiatry fellows. Dr. Edwards regularly speaks about race, trauma, structural inequality, and the history of medicine at conferences and invited lectures. -
Matthew R. Edwards
Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering
BioMatthew Edwards is an Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering. His research applies high-power lasers to the development of optical diagnostics for fluids and plasmas, the study of intense light-matter interactions, and the construction of compact light and particle sources, combining adaptive high-repetition-rate experiments and large-scale simulations to explore new regimes in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, materials science, and plasma physics.
Matthew received BSE, MA, and PhD degrees in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from Princeton University. He was then a Lawrence Fellow in the National Ignition Facility and Photon Science Directorate at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. -
Paul N. Edwards
Senior Lecturer, Inter-Departmental Programs
BioI retired in January 2026 to escape rising fascism in the USA. Until then, I was Director of the Program on Science, Technology & Society (STS) and a Senior Research Scholar at the Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford. I also co-directed the Stanford Existential Risks Initiative with Prof. Steve Luby.
I'm also Professor of Information and History (Emeritus) at the University of Michigan, where I worked for 19 years in the School of Information, the Dept. of History, and the STS Program. I taught previously at Stanford from 1992-1998, in the STS Program and the Computer Science Dept.
I study the history, politics, and culture of information infrastructures, especially climate knowledge systems. My books include A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming (MIT Press, 2010), The Closed World: Computers and the Politics of Discourse in Cold War America (MIT Press, 1996), and Changing the Atmosphere: Expert Knowledge and Environmental Governance (MIT Press, 2001, co-edited with Clark Miller). With Janet Vertesi (Princeton), I'm academic editor of the MIT Press book series Infrastructures.
I served as one of 234 Lead Authors for the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Working Group I (Physical Sciences), released in August 2021. -
Alex Edwin
Life Science Research Professional 1, Pathology - Montine Lab
BioAlex received his bachelor's degree in neuroscience from Santa Clara University. He also minored in Spanish and Biology. During his time there, he studied fMRI data to identify patterns of resting-state functional brain connectivity in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Currently, he utilizes hippocampal slice cultures, cell cultures, and biochemical assays to screen small molecule drug compounds. His research is conducted with hopes to identify novel therapeutics for Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and X-linked creatine deficiency.

Charles (Chuck) Eesley
Professor of Management Science and Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on the influence of the external environment on entrepreneurship. I investigate the types of environments that encourage the founding of high growth, technology-based firms. I build on previous literature that explains why entrepreneurs are successful and my major contribution is to demonstrate that institutions matter. I show that effective institutional change influences who starts firms, not just how many firms are started.

Elizabeth Egan
Associate Professor of Pediatrics (Infectious Diseases) and of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMalaria is a parasitic disease transmitted by mosquitos that is a leading cause of childhood mortality globally. Public health efforts to control malaria have historically been hampered by the rapid development of drug resistance. The goal of our research is to understand the molecular determinants of critical host-pathogen interactions in malaria, with a focus on the erythrocyte host cell. Our long-term goal is to develop novel approaches to prevent or treat malaria and improve child health.
